"JUST A THOUGHT"
UPDATE: Tuesday, June 26, 2007
COMMENT:
Ted: In my opinion, on"HBO" last Saturday night "Ricky Hatton" stepped up in the USA & did His job.
Now , Everybody is calling "Ricky Hatton" out.
They know a fight with "Hatton" is big $$$$.
"GOOD THING" Floyd Mayweather Jr. is retired.
But thats for another day.

Fight Night Weights: HATTON (147) v CASTILLO (154). I thought FIGHT NIGHT weights would B in reversed. Favors HATTON Big Time. Goes late Castillo Tires.

PREDICTION- HATTON KO 3.
"HATTON" BY KO-4 ( Time 2:16)
COMMENT: Post Fight interview by Max Kellerman has 2 throw something negative abt the fight. Max's comment: Diego Corrales fights took a huge toll on Castillo. Next comment from Max: Castillo looked like a Shot Fighter. Why make a negative comment.Typical Media response.
My opinion:HATTON a natural @(140) hurt Castillo-(135) with some serious Left Hooks.
"FLASHBACK" Hopkins v DeLa Hoya-9th RD.
